The Man in the Moon.

Now, all my life long my heart it has ached
For the lonesome old Man in the Moon:
I've wondered why he, of all men was denied
A bountful heavens best boon.
All, who with heart but would pity him. tooy
What mortal, who knows what It means,
But feels for the man who makes his own bed
And bakes his own brown bread and beans:
I've thought of him sitting aweary. alone,
With wildly dishevelled gray locks,
OF Saturday night when the Moon it beamed
bright
A-darning his tattered old socks
I've thought of him oft, with the Moon at the
And wondered if he was full, too;
And with no one to let him in whom he came
home
What the fudded old fellow would do.
OH many's the night I've gazed up at him,
And thought 'twaSnt far % the Moon.
And wondered-we'Ve SO many women to
spare
If a wife could be sent by balloon.
Bur, ah, me, find that this eminent fraud
Has been foolng me all of my life,
For a wiseacre down in New Jersey says now
That the Man in the Moon has q wife.
At least he is willing to swear he has seen
A woman's face up in the moon
And, OF course, the legitimate inference is
She's the wife of that cunning old coon.
After all ought TO have known by the light
OF Nature that some female fair
Dwelt along with him way up aloft in the moon,
Or the man himself wouldn't be there
Buy why don't the rest of us see Mrs. Mann
In what lunar lair does she keep?
The Jerseyman says she's an air Of repose,"
So perhaps she Is always asleep.
But woman we know s coming fast TO the front
Mrs. Man she viii wake up full soon
And once she's on deck and asserting her rights
It's good-by to the Man in tho Moon

Cutting Down Expenses.
Fron the Dakotn Bell.

a town which is enjoying a boom, to his part
ner, Il closed the deal with that man from
Philadelphia"
rs that soy
Yes, he takes the five lots and pays $4,000.
Let's figure up and see how we came out on
them"
well, they cost us 81, 600"
Eyes, and it took about $500 to treat and en-
terrain that man from Chicago whom we tried
to sell to-
And l let the St Paul man beat me out
of 500 at poker in the hope of selling to
him.
Then cashed a bogus draft of $3.50 for that
man from New York, and then he skipped out
without buying
Then that Iowa man took up two days of our
time at $50 day"
Yes, and said he wanted to think about it
took home to dinner with me, he stole silver
ware to the value of SIS and skipped like the
rest
"And I paid $40 drunk and disorderly fine for
the Milwaukee man"
I'VE mustn't forget to figure in about $50 for
livery bills

church with that Boston man"
And put down 800 for advertising and $50

he accidentally overheard me tell this man we

A Needed Restriction.

1t is not improbable that the agitation of
the immigration question by the Knights of
Labor will cause Congress to enact legisia-
ton of some sort tending 10 restrict immi-
grafton While public sentiment is still in
favor Of permitting immigrants who are ca
pable of earning living, and who are sound
in mind and body and are willing TO accept
our laws and institutions, to land on our
shores, it is certainly opposed TO the recep-
ton of pauper criminals Anaro hsts, So
cialists, contract laborers, and those who are
likely soon to become burden upon the
tax payers.
The census of 1880 shows that while only
one-eighth of the entire population was at
that time of foreign birth fully one third
of those in the insane asylums, almhouses
and prisons were foreigners. 1t is probable
that a census at the present time would
show pretty much the same condition of
things While healthy immigrants of good
morals and little money who want to make
homes for themselves and become good citi-
zens are desired the riff-raff of Europe is
not wanted There is no reason why the
people of this country should be saddled
with the burdens which European countries
are anxious to get rid of.
The immigration laws ought to be so
amended as to permit the reception of only
such immigrants as are desirable While
we have plenty of unoccupied land and can
accommodate a population many times
greater than we have, we ought to exercise
great care in choosing those who are to share
our privileges We ought to say emphati-
cally that we want only those who will be
help, and not those who will be a burden to
us.
The Knights of Labor viii do the country
good service if they force this immigration
question on the attention of Congress and
succeed in getting such restrictive legisla-
ton as is needed with regard to it. If only
those immigrants were permitted to land
at our ports who had certificates from our
consuls, showing them to be the kind of
people wanted here, the country would be
relieved of a very large percentage of i'm
migrants who eventually drift into chart
table institutions and prisons

A Famous House for Sale.
from the Rnltlmore Anle1cnn.

TTODl INC EdItInlOfe I0le17Cdll.
The historical house in which Payne the as
saSsin, attempted the life of Secretary Seward
at the time of Lincon's assassination, is now
offered for sale AS is well known, Seward was
confined to his bed by sickness at the time and
his escape was almost miraculous. After this
the house was purchased by the government
and has since been used by the Commissary
General as his headquarters The approaching
completion of the new wing to the State, War
and Navy Department building removes the
Commissary Generals office to that building,
and it is on this account that the government
now offers the house for sale. 1t is located in
full view of the White House, on the east side
OF Lafayette Park which makes it very valua-
BILE. 1t was in front of this house that the tree
once stood into which one of Gen. Dan SickleS'
bullets was imbedded when he shot Barton Key
for undue intimacy with his wife The tree
from that time was literally cut to pieces by ia
natical relic hunters, until it finally died and
was removed.

Washington Cranks.
from the Baltimore SIN.

1t is generally conceded that there are more
cranks in Washington in proportion to its popu-
States. None have a better opportunity to
judge of this fact than those who are engaged
in newspaper work there. There are several
positively dangerous female cranks who hang
about the departments pursuing imaginary
claims, The wild, hungry look in their eyes es-
tablishes their identity at glance. AS long as
their rambling, disconnected utterances are
are treated with apparent indifference they be
come violent, and considerable tact is necessary
to pacify them. How these poor creatures
manage to exist is a mystery as they have worn
the same old, shabby clothes for many seasons,
and their faces have pinched and halfstarved
look, while their eyes at times seem almost
starting from their sockets. Absolute despair
will sooner or later take possession of these I'M
fortunates, and there is no telling what the
result may be.

On Foot and Horseback.
From the Baltimore Americdn.

1t is said that Attorney General Garland at
tributes his good health and appetite to the
fact that he is fond OF walking. Up to the time
tomary for him, at the close of office hours, to
call at the formers office. which is around the
corner, and the two would walk to their homes
together, He is the pedestrian of the Cabinet,
although Secretary Bayard does a little of it at
times; but the latters principal enjoyment is
horseback riding. Secretary Lamar is like Mr..
Bayard in both matters. Secretaries EndicOtt,
Whitney, and Postmaster General Villas, always
ride home from their offices in their carriages.
Secretary Fairchild at times takes gallop on
his saddle horse. Secretary Whitney is very
much like Jack on Horseback" when he tries
the equestrian racket At the paper-hunt it
is said that the genial naval secretary gave
room for plenty Of wind and light between him
and the saddle. This may be SANDER on This

Escape of Mrs. Clevelands Canary.


When Mrs. Cleveland returns to the White
House next Wednesday she will find her fayorite
canary bird missing The little songster took
his freedom and flew away with it yesterday
while the housemaid was cleaning its cage. The
presidential bird, with truly democratic in
stincts fraternized with the humble English
sparrow, the catbird, the graceful robin and
the republican blackbird, whose nests are built
in the trees surrounding the executive mansion
The entire domestic force was called out to try
but without avail. A step-ladder was brought
out and on it was placed another cage, CON
tanning his mate, with the hope that the wan
derer would return. but the latter was still en-
jOying his summer vacation when darkness
settled around the Presidents house.

Representing tho Old Maids at the
Jubilee.
From the Court Journal.

An elderly maiden lady, living near Sdeup.
wrote to the Lord Chamberlain few weeks ago
saying that she believed every class Of her ma
jesty's subjects would be represented at the
Abbey excepting one, the old maids" of her
maiesty's dominions, and she asked for two
tickets to have the honor of representing the
"old maids, wishing to have lady friend to
accompany her
In due course she received polite reply from
Lord Lathom saying that he was quite unable
TO resist the force Of her argument, aud would
therefore send her a ticket for the Abbey
whittier, Of course, the old lady went on Tues
day week.
